The accordion may be well represented in Portugese music, but there are few experiences to compare with Danças Ocultas, a quartet of diatonic accordionists and composers who have gathered together to create dramatic, challenging and beautiful music.

The musicians, Artur Fernandes, Filipe Cal, Filipe Ricardo and Francisco Miguel, are united in their love not only of the folkloric music of Portugal, but in the challenges presented in making that music into something new and unique. They have modified instruments in pursuit of new sounds (Fernandes' bass diatonic is a wonderous sound) and sought out influences from anywhere in the world.

Most of our CDs have been imported from Europe or Asia. They are not all shrink-wrapped, and we are not going to con you by wrapping them here just to make you think they have been sterilized in America. We guarantee that the CDs and the contents are all brand new and in perfect condition. Whenever we can, we used recycled shipping materials. They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier.
